(Coral Springs, FL) According to the website of the Muslim Foundation
of America (MFA), Keith Ellison has been named as this year’s Grand
Marshall of the Muslim Day Parade being held in New York City, on
September 9, 2007. This follows last year’s Grand Marshall choice of
Siraj Wahhaj, a man who was named by the U.S. government as a suspected
co-conspirator to the 1993 bombing of the World Trade Center.

The Muslim Day Parade is a conglomeration of radical Muslim groups with
ties to Hamas, Al-Qaeda and the Muslim Brotherhood, including the
Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR), the Muslim American
Society (MAS), and the Islamic Circle of North America (ICNA).

For Ellison, this is just one more appearance in a long string of appearances at radical Muslim events.
This includes a speaking engagement in May, at the 4th Annual
Convention of the Muslim American Society of Minnesota. While Ellison
spoke, the group’s website contained statements calling for the murders
of Jews and the waging of war against non-Muslims. The statements are
still there, and Ellison has yet to denounce them. A counter on the
homepage of the Americans Against Hate (AAH) website is keeping track
of the number of days that Ellison refuses to do so. The counter is
currently at Day 79.

Joe Kaufman, AAH Chairman and founder of CAIR Watch, stated, “It is
beyond reproach that Keith Ellison, a United States Congressman,
continues to make appearances and give speeches at events sponsored by
Muslim radicals. The fact that he is speaking at this event is more
evidence that he is unfit to serve our country.”

AAH calls on Congressman Ellison to resign from office immediately
